I just discovered this forum after already posting this in Rocky Talky, and I think it belongs here!
I have a very nice stone, an emerald cut, F in color, VVS2 in clarity, to put in this A. Jaffe setting(below). There is a matching band that I want to get as well. It is .80 carat, and has a length to width of 1.35. I have searched far and wide to come up with a good setting; and here is a bit about the woman:
She is elegant (hence the emerald cut I think) but still contemporary. She likes to be different than other women (with style). She has told me she likes things simple, and prefers a solitaire setting. However, I have watched engagement ring commercials with her, and sometimes she hints at having a setting that has a couple SMALL stones on the sides to make it sparkle a LITTLE more(nothing like a paved setting). She thinks it''s "very pretty." The attention grabber on the ring should be the diamond, not anything else. She has long, bony fingers FYI too, and this ring and band seem to be on the narrow side.
That''s why I am opting for baguettes, so they aren''t as sparkly, but add to the overall appearance.
What do you guys/gals think of this setting, wedding band and all?
